Established in 1984, the park encompasses a significant portion of the Crocker Range, a major mountain range renowned for its rugged terrain and lush rainforest. This area plays a crucial role in protecting diverse ecosystems and is home to several endemic and endangered species, such as the Bornean orangutan and the vivacious hornbill. The park offers a variety of recreational activities, including hiking, wildlife viewing, and river sports, catering to adventurers and families alike.
